Brokers Fail,

| New YORK, July 3O-U. A Cameau, OF
| 81 New Street, member of the Consol-
| idated Exchange, has Jailed. Two hun
dred shares of New YORK and New England
stock were sold for him under the rule
JIG. Him, another broker in the Consol-
| idated Exchange, has failed, and 1,i60
shares OF st Paul and 100 shares of Lake
Shore were sold out under the rule for his
account. His Indebtedness to the clearing
house will probably not exceed $1,000
Regarding Harry Powers, the Post says:
| Late yesterday afternoon reports were flying
around that Harry Il Powers, a well-knOwn
put and call broker on the street, was in
trouble; that he would be unable to meet
his contracts. and through that bring down
the brOking firm of Gould IL Henry.
McKennedy, of the firm of II. J. Nicholas
d Co., hearing the rumor in regard to Pow
ers' standing, called upon the firm for &c
entitled to on a 500-share contract OF
the firm, which he held He could
not find any member of the firm, and
was unable to get q check for
the amount; Kennedy did not care to wait,
and sold the 500 shares on the Stock Ex-
change for the account of Gould & Henry.
The price obtained was 90 and the loss of his
the transaction to the firm was only 1915.
Gould & Henry said the whole thing was
blunder, and that the house had not sus-
pended and did otintend to. 1t was said
that Powers was simply q little pressed and
had gone to his uncle's, who is said to be
worth $1,5OO,OOO, and expected to raise
enough to raid the pressure. At the Office
of Gould & Henry, this morning, it was
learned that Powers had not arrived with
the money, but they were expecting him
every minute. Further than that nothing
would be said. The firm of Gould & Henry,
Powers brokers, settled the claim of II.
Nicholas on account of difference in the
transaction in the Lake Shore, but the
claims of the holders of puts and calls have
not been settled. Powers did not appear at
the office of his brokers to-day, and although
it is admitted that he is embarrassed, his
friends claim that he will settle with every
one in full.
ST.. LOUIS, July 80 Louis Halle, wine

New York stock Exobanea.

NEW YORK, July 40.-The selling yester-
day, which caused heavy liquidation in the
afternoon, developed into panic at the
opening of the exchange this morning and
stocks were sold at any sacrifice, the only
object of brokers seeming to be the closing
of accounts of ruined spectators The
greatest cause of decline was the non-ap-
pearance of Harry Powers, who took the
place OF Russell Sage as leading writer of
privileges on the street His business was
large and operators held his puts and calls
as security against their stocks. At the
office of Gould & h enry, who do most of
Powers stock exchange business, no state
ment could be obtained although one of the
attaches admitted that Powers was en-
blrrassed, but would probably come out all
right and settle everything in full There
need be no suspension TO-DAY, even Though
he is bankrupt. as the half holiday prevents
any stock being put to him to-day
IL 20-1he news of the non-appearance of
Powers caused the offering of stocks in such
volume that prices began a rapid decline
which was only limited by the fact that no
cash could be realized from any sales made
to-day. Reading fell per cent in the first
hour Northwest S75z, St Paul %, Missouri

The market then showed less activity, but
slowly settled down and remained feverish
to the end. The close was feverish and I'M
settled, but generally weak, al about lowest
figures reached.
LATER The short session in the stock
exchange to-day was the liYeliest seen since
the break of June "a, ana the discourage
ment of the bulls since yesterday quickly
developed Into a panic. The stocks were
thrown over right and left and many &C
counts were wiped out on the long SIDE To
aid the depression, the privilege broker,

New windsor Items,

Whit Monday was great day with the col
ored people. Early in the morning the streets
of our village were crowded with passing ve-
hicles of all sorts, vending their way to Mt.
Olivet, commonly called the Hills, about five
miles from this place, in Frederick county,
where the annual festival of the Nazarites
was held. The men were decorated with rich
and gaudy regalias the woman wearing uni
form bonnetts of violet color, in shape very
much life Dunkers. Several speeches were
delivered by the Grand Worthless ofthe society,
interspersed with music by two colored bands,
with terrific power and effect. There were
also present representatives of the Good
Samaritans and the Gallalean Fishermen.
The Fishermen did not conhne themselves to
the lrdter element, but were moved by a
different spirit. After speaking various
amusements and feasting were INDUCED in to
late hour. Good order prevailed up to the
arrival of dsorderly set of coons from West,
minister, whose presence amongst their colored
brethren is generally the cause OF distur-
bance on account of their disorderly conduct,
and, Judging from expressions of the natives
here, they are welcome only when they can
demean themselves in the same exemplary
manner that they are noted for. A few little
fights took place, which, however, soon were
quelled.
Various improvements have been going on
around this neighborhood, and amongst them
must be mentioned that of the Baron Henry
Won Werder, who has resumed his business
/ in the ceramic art, and is now prepared to I'LL
orders for vases, flower pots, and almost any
thing to be conceived of in his line, it being
only necessary to give an idea as to style de-
| sired. either East Lake, lockwood, or other
well known establishments. and he will fill the
bill at such prices us cannot but meet the
views of the most fastidious. His designs are
| original and he embraces the opportunity OF
| the spare time TO occupy his mind in this way
| and the result of course is unique.
Our already handsome drug store has been
| improved by a commodious and artistic bay,
window, constructed by that architectural
genius. Ephraim Repp, who by the by is also
an ardent admirer of Henry George and the
anti poverty society. The proprietor Of the
drug store, Louis II. Dielman, has also added u
very elaborate and beautiful soda water foun-
tain, which is well patronized, showing that ouI
citizens appreciate his energy and public
spirit.
The closing exercises Of the College take
place next week, and the departure of the
students TO their homes will reduce our mum
bers somewhat but it will be relieved by the
daily arrival Of others from the city seeking
/ the refreshing atmosphere and quiet OF oul
delightful town.

Pretty airl,s winks and a jury.

From the baltimore Sun.
Judge Dennis, in the Circuit Court, began
the trial on Tuesday of the case of Daniel
Frazier, of Finksburg, Carroll county, Nd,
against Geo. Hawkins Williams, executor oil
Richard s. Hardesty, deceased. Mr.. Har-
desty in his lifetime loaned Mr.. Frazier 49,
200, and Mr.. Frazier purchased from Mr..
Hardesty house, No. 43 North Stricken
street, and gave him a mortgage on it and
property in Finksburg. The mortgage be-
coming in default, they entered into an agree
ment for Mr.. Hardesty to sell the Stricken
street house under foreclosure at auction, to
buy it in himself and resell it at private sale
and credit Mr.. Frazier with the difference.
The house was sold at auction for ST45 and
resold at private sale for 81, 500. Mr.. Har-
desty, it is charged. refused to credit the diff
ference to Mr.. Frazier, and the bill now be-
fore the court is for n specific performance OF
the contract. Mr.. George Hawkins Williams
testified: 81 am farmer, and was Mr.. Har-
desty's lawyer for matters in Baltimore city
(by that | don't mean his conveyancer or
searcher for titles) for about forty years.
Living in the country and rarely in the city
in midsummer, | have no recollection of any
special interviews with him at that time. He
was very i'll in 1882, and for some months in
or about the summer or autumn of that year
he was utterly incapable of attending to any
business. He recovered, and thence onward
to the hour of his death mentally he was cap
able of all matters inquired of, though jury
lately in the Court of Common Pleas of Bal
timore City found by verdict that in April,
1885, he had not testamentary capacity. He
died in September, 1885, and with no respect
whatever for the finding of that jury, he was
capable mentally down to the hour of his
death, and you may put down that. A pretty
girl sat in front OF them and winked at them,
and they gave verdict accordingly"
On Thursday the decree dismissing the bill
was granted

pnnrunr1nv OF SITE SIX Per CENTS.

REDEMPTION OF STATE Six Per CENTS
The governor, comptroller and treasurer of
MARYLAND issue notices announcing the read
mess of the state treasury TO redeem the deaf
and dumb six per cent. loan, SIPS, 200, which
is due July, 1889, but redeemable at the
pleasure Of the state after 1884. 1t is the
policy of the state government to steadily re-
duce the high-rate interest bonds as fast as the
condition of the treasury will permit.
The treasury is able at this time to pay
off the deaf and dumb bonds, but there are
other debts of larger amount which 1t
has been concluded to refund. These are
known as the Maryland State loan bonds,
bearing six per cent. interest, amounting in
the aggregate to over 81 200, 900, which will
be refunded in three per cent. tax-exempt
bonds, authorized by the act Of 1886. The
State government gives notice that these
bonds, issued under act of 1872, chapter 366,
will be exchanged at par on or before July l,
next, when they fall due.
When the deaf and dumb loan is wiped out
and the Maryland State loan is exchanged as
now proposed, it will leave no six per cent
interest bearing debt of the State of Maryland
outside of the holdings of the sinking fund
except the treasury relief loan of $500, 600
issued in 1878 to run fifteen years and re
deemable in ten years.
1t is understood that Comptroller Turne
further proposes that if in the coming year
1888, the 1886, 900 of Baltimore and Ohio si'
per cent bonds which the State holds ar
paid by the company, the whole of the treas
ury relief loan will be extinguished immedi
